18. Shore, Miles F.; Cohen, Martin D. "Observations from the program on chronic mental illness". Health Affairs vol. 11 (Fall 1992) p. 227-33.
Abstract: Analyzes Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Program on Chronic Mental Illness which began in December 1986 and ended in 1992. Program, which also received federal funding, involved improving systems of care for persons with chronic mental illness in nine cities. Grant proposals had to focus on creating a single organization to oversee all aspects of a city's mental health services. Although all nine systems developed components which could be widely used, no program was able to create a single authority to administer both inpatient care in the state hospital and outpatient care in the community. Project influenced RWJF to create new priorities concerning mental illness; to integrate service and funding of health care programs; and to develop other partnerships with government entities.

19. Mangan, Katherine S. "With help from U. of Texas's Hogg Foundation, researchers study some of today's most troubling mental-health issues". Chronicle of Higher Education vol. 37 (13 March 1991) p. 29-30.
Abstract: The Hogg Foundation for Mental Health, based at the University of Texas, is believed to be the only major foundation in the nation operated by the regents of a public university. Although the 50-year-old fund's grants are restricted to Texas, it has an impact across the U.S. in the mental health field. The foundation also conducts its own research and offers a variety of educational services. The foundation has stimulated interdisciplinary efforts on several subjects at the university, ranging from gerontology to the study of U.S.-Mexican border issues. The foundation's grants in 1989-1990 break down as follows: 56 percent to private agencies, eleven percent to the University of Texas System, eight percent to other colleges and universities across the state, and the rest divided among state hospitals, voluntary associations, public schools, and state government agencies.
